I agree. And any rational person would see that. I just don't think the people in charge of the nukes would see it the same way, since the only war they know is WWII, and that one ended with nukes on civilian centers (don't mention the eastern front). Not to mention they love bloodshed and spectacle, at the expense of the rest of the world.

Also want to consider the religious undertones being set by Hegseth. Some of these people in power feel ordained by god to carry out this destruction.
